Shakespeare's Development as a Dramatist: A Comparison of Richard III and Richard II
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page discussion of the development of Shakespeare's drama between his earlier works such as Richard III and his second period works such as Richard II. Contends that even in Richard III, produced in what is classified as his first phase of writing, Shakespeare is phenomenally successful in dramatically portraying Richard III as pure evil. His dramatic skill in his later work, especially Richard II, will be even more apparent. It would be during this period that Shakespeare would bring historical drama to a near perfection. No additional sources are listed.

Shelley's Frankenstein/Dangers of Scientific Progress
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page essay that examines Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. The writer argues Shelley's novel seems to speak directly to the modern reader and offer explicit warning against scientific discovery unregulated by restrictions of morality or responsibility. Victor Frankenstein, Shelley's brilliant protagonist/scientist, suffers a tragic downfall worthy of the ancient Greek tragedians. Shelley's text suggests that this occurs due to two failings. First of all Frankenstein, like the ancient Greek tragic heroes, is guilty of hubris, that is, excessive pride, of "attempting to be like God" (Madigan 48), but also, he initially does not take responsibility for his actions. Furthermore, in his hubris, Frankenstein exhibits two characteristics that he himself castigates, "cowardice and carelessness," which he exhibits in the manner in which he deals with his creation (Shelley 37). Bibliography lists 4 sources.
